I haven't but what really disgusts me is the so called "marketing", which is in 100% of all cases composed of incompetent idiots who have 0 knowledge in any field, including marketing. If you want good marketing, hire a psych

I think the autonomous driving, while a factor, will not be as much of a kick as covid-19 cure and/or vaccine. I mean all the best to everyone trying and I hope someone proves me wrong about this by actually discovering a drug/vac

I've spent an unhealthy amount of time at presentations, conferences, seminars and meetups. With that, on your first point, I'm more inclined to believe somewhere around 90% have absolutely no "AI" or "ML" for

That is true, though I must also add that some of the ones in question came from prestigious and world renowned universities. Once you'd struggle to get in(in theory apparently, because otherwise I have no idea how that works). They al

I have to disagree with that statement. There are such and I've worked with such far more than I'd even want to imagine. There have been entire releases where I've had to re-do everything they've done from scratch becaus

What I love about Ben Eater's videos is his incredible patience with these things. I started several projects with arduinos and raspberry pi's and parts are still laying around in a drawer. You spend hours or days physically build

I like it. Kinda reminds me of jump[1] which at a period I was using a lot but forgot about it when I got a newer laptop and did the "oh crap, I miss that, I'll install it tomorrow" for 3 weeks and eventually forgot about it.

Tbh zoom on Linux is utter garbage. Every time I join a meeting, my CPU goes into deep frying territory. It's like compiling on heroin. In all fairness skype has been the most reliable for me so far, with jitsi being a close second.

The US is a very different beast altogether. I'm a bit far away from there but as a spectator, I'd say the US had the absolutely __WORST__ reaction to this situation. Given that about 40 to 45% of all confirmed covid19 cases are i

There is a bigger picture here: there is undeniably a crisis but it's an external factor as far as the economy is concerned. Fact of the matter is, plenty of big businesses are doing better than ever: everything online is exploding, on

Unless you're doing it on a computer completely off any network and doesn't have any form of communication with the outside world, that's a very bad idea. Edit: Ok, plenty of people already said things in that context already

Very clever idea actually, major props. Unfortunately I get really sick from VR so it's not gonna be for me but I can definitely see how someone can take advantage of that. In the WFH era for people who have tiny laptops, this could do

This kind of depends: if you live alone or you have the ability to isolate yourself from everyone else you live with, be it flatmate, partner, family, etc., then yes. In that respect I am absolutely loving it and I find a lot more motivatio

Sorry, but no. Documentation should be small, portable and easy to read on any device, even if you don't have a graphical interface. Hence the reason why markdown succeeded. It is meant to be simple to learn, simple to write, simple to
